int_a^b [f(x)] dx text requires breaking the integral at points where f(x) in mathbbZ$\int_{a}^{b} [f(x)] dx \text{ requires breaking the integral at points where } f(x) \in \mathbb{Z}$
### Core Logic
Let f(x) = sqrtfrac10xx+1$f(x) = \sqrt{\frac{10x}{x+1}}$. We need to find the critical points where f(x)$f(x)$ takes integer values in the interval x in [0, 9]$x \in [0, 9]$.
f(x)^2 = frac10xx+1$f(x)^2 = \frac{10x}{x+1}$
Set frac10xx+1 = 1^2 Rightarrow 10x = x + 1 Rightarrow 9x = 1 Rightarrow x = frac19$\frac{10x}{x+1} = 1^2 \Rightarrow 10x = x + 1 \Rightarrow 9x = 1 \Rightarrow x = \frac{1}{9}$
Set frac10xx+1 = 2^2 = 4 Rightarrow 10x = 4x + 4 Rightarrow 6x = 4 Rightarrow x = frac23$\frac{10x}{x+1} = 2^2 = 4 \Rightarrow 10x = 4x + 4 \Rightarrow 6x = 4 \Rightarrow x = \frac{2}{3}$
Set frac10xx+1 = 3^2 = 9 Rightarrow 10x = 9x + 9 Rightarrow x = 9$\frac{10x}{x+1} = 3^2 = 9 \Rightarrow 10x = 9x + 9 \Rightarrow x = 9$
### Step 1: Splitting the integral
The integrand left[ sqrtfrac10xx + 1 right]$\left[ \sqrt{\frac{10x}{x + 1}} \right]$ evaluates to:
0$0$ for x in left[0, frac19right)$x \in \left[0, \frac{1}{9}\right)$1$1$ for x in left[frac19, frac23right)$x \in \left[\frac{1}{9}, \frac{2}{3}\right)$2$2$ for x in left[frac23, 9right]$x \in \left[\frac{2}{3}, 9\right]$
The integral I = 9 int_0^9 left[ sqrtfrac10xx + 1 right] dx$I = 9 \int_{0}^{9} \left[ \sqrt{\frac{10x}{x + 1}} \right] dx$ can be split as:
I = 9 left( int_0^1/9 0 \, dx + int_1/9^2/3 1 \, dx + int_2/3^9 2 \, dx right)$I = 9 \left( \int_{0}^{1/9} 0 \, dx + \int_{1/9}^{2/3} 1 \, dx + \int_{2/3}^{9} 2 \, dx \right)$
### Step 2: Evaluating sub-intervals
I = 9 left( 0 + 1 times left(frac23 - frac19right) + 2 times left(9 - frac23right) right)$I = 9 \left( 0 + 1 \times \left(\frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{9}\right) + 2 \times \left(9 - \frac{2}{3}\right) \right)$I = 9 left( frac59 + 2 left(frac253right) right)$I = 9 \left( \frac{5}{9} + 2 \left(\frac{25}{3}\right) \right)$I = 9 left( frac59 + frac503 right)$I = 9 \left( \frac{5}{9} + \frac{50}{3} \right)$I = 9 left( frac5 + 1509 right)$I = 9 \left( \frac{5 + 150}{9} \right)$I = 155$I = 155$
### Pattern Recognition

Solution
### Related Formula
textComposite sequence relation: f^n(x) = fracx(1 + n x^4)^1/4$\text{Composite sequence relation: } f^n(x) = \frac{x}{(1 + n x^4)^{1/4}}$
### Core Logic
Evaluate the composition function step-by-step:
f(f(x)) = fracf(x)(1 + f(x)^4)^1/4 = fracfracx(1+x^4)^1/4left(1 + fracx^41+x^4right)^1/4 = fracx(1 + 2x^4)^1/4$f(f(x)) = \frac{f(x)}{(1 + f(x)^4)^{1/4}} = \frac{\frac{x}{(1+x^4)^{1/4}}}{\left(1 + \frac{x^4}{1+x^4}\right)^{1/4}} = \frac{x}{(1 + 2x^4)^{1/4}}$
Continuing this pattern n$n$ times yields:
f^n(x) = fracx(1 + nx^4)^1/4$f^n(x) = \frac{x}{(1 + nx^4)^{1/4}}$
Thus, g(x) = f(f(f(f(x)))) = f^4(x) = fracx(1 + 4x^4)^1/4$g(x) = f(f(f(f(x)))) = f^4(x) = \frac{x}{(1 + 4x^4)^{1/4}}$.
### Step 1: Setting up the Integral
The required integral is:
I = 18int_0^sqrt2sqrt5 fracx^3(1 + 4x^4)^1/4 dx$I = 18\int_{0}^{\sqrt{2\sqrt{5}}} \frac{x^3}{(1 + 4x^4)^{1/4}} dx$
We use substitution to solve this. Let 1 + 4x^4 = t^4$1 + 4x^4 = t^4$.
Differentiating gives:
16x^3 dx = 4t^3 dt Rightarrow x^3 dx = frac14 t^3 dt$16x^3 dx = 4t^3 dt \Rightarrow x^3 dx = \frac{1}{4} t^3 dt$
### Step 2: Modifying limits and Solving
Change limits:
When x = 0$x = 0$, 1 + 0 = t^4 Rightarrow t = 1$1 + 0 = t^4 \Rightarrow t = 1$.
When x = (2sqrt5)^1/2$x = (2\sqrt{5})^{1/2}$, x^4 = (2sqrt5)^2 = 20$x^4 = (2\sqrt{5})^2 = 20$.
Then 1 + 4(20) = 81 = t^4 Rightarrow t = 3$1 + 4(20) = 81 = t^4 \Rightarrow t = 3$.
Substitute into the integral:
I = 18 int_1^3 fracfrac14 t^3 dtt$I = 18 \int_{1}^{3} \frac{\frac{1}{4} t^3 dt}{t}$I = frac184 int_1^3 t^2 dt = frac92 left[ fract^33 right]_1^3$I = \frac{18}{4} \int_{1}^{3} t^2 dt = \frac{9}{2} \left[ \frac{t^3}{3} \right]_1^3$I = frac92 cdot frac13 [t^3]_1^3 = frac32 (27 - 1) = frac32 (26) = 39$I = \frac{9}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{3} [t^3]_1^3 = \frac{3}{2} (27 - 1) = \frac{3}{2} (26) = 39$
### Pattern Recognition
Repeated compositions of x(1+cx^k)^-1/k$x(1+cx^k)^{-1/k}$ follow a strict linearity in the coefficient of x^k$x^k$. Here, 4 compositions cleanly changed the x^4$x^4$ coefficient from 1 to 4, preparing a perfect variable substitution.

textArea enclosed integrating w.r.t y-axis: int (x_textright - x_textleft) dy$\text{Area enclosed integrating w.r.t y-axis: } \int (x_{\text{right}} - x_{\text{left}}) dy$
### Core Logic
Find intersection points between the parabola x = (y-2)^2 + 1$x = (y-2)^2 + 1$ and the line x = 2y - 4$x = 2y - 4$.
Set them equal:
(y-2)^2 + 1 = 2y - 4$(y-2)^2 + 1 = 2y - 4$y^2 - 4y + 4 + 1 = 2y - 4$y^2 - 4y + 4 + 1 = 2y - 4$y^2 - 6y + 9 = 0 Rightarrow (y-3)^2 = 0$y^2 - 6y + 9 = 0 \Rightarrow (y-3)^2 = 0$
The line is tangent to the parabola at y = 3$y = 3$. At y = 3$y = 3$, x = 2(3) - 4 = 2$x = 2(3) - 4 = 2$.
We need the area enclosed by the parabola, the line, and the *positive coordinate axes*.
Let's trace the boundary intercepts.
The line x = 2y - 4$x = 2y - 4$ cuts the y-axis (x=0$x=0$) at y=2$y=2$.
Parabola vertex is at (1, 2)$(1, 2)$. Parabola cuts y-axis (x=0$x=0$) at (y-2)^2 = -1$(y-2)^2 = -1$ (No real y-intercept).
So the curve (y-2)^2 = x-1$(y-2)^2 = x-1$ only exists for x ge 1$x \ge 1$.
### Step 1: Setting up the Integral w.r.t y
Area Under Curve diagram for Q29 - JEE Main 2024 Evening
Because the area is bound by the positive coordinate axes, we track integration strictly in the first quadrant.
The required area is the area between the y-axis, the x-axis, the line, and the curve. Wait, the problem says "area enclosed by the parabola... line... and positive coordinate axes".
Let's integrate with respect to y$y$.
The boundary curves are x = (y-2)^2 + 1$x = (y-2)^2 + 1$ (which forms the rightmost boundary) and the axes.
The area bounded by the curve with y-axis is from y=0$y=0$ to y=3$y=3$ minus the triangular region cut by the line below y=2$y=2$.
The line intersects the x-axis (y=0$y=0$) at x=-4$x=-4$ and y-axis (x=0$x=0$) at y=2$y=2$.
The positive coordinate axes enforce boundaries at x ge 0, y ge 0$x \ge 0, y \ge 0$.
So the exact area is the integral of the parabola's x$x$-value from y=0$y=0$ to y=3$y=3$, minus the area of the small triangle outside the region bounded by the line x=2y-4$x=2y-4$ and the axes in the positive quadrant.
The area under the parabola (to the left towards the y-axis) from y=0$y=0$ to y=3$y=3$ is int_0^3 x_textparabola dy$\int_0^3 x_{\text{parabola}} dy$.
The line bounds the region on the left from y=2$y=2$ to y=3$y=3$. Between y=0$y=0$ and y=2$y=2$, the area goes fully to the y-axis.
So, area = int_0^3 x_textparabola dy - textArea of Delta text bounded by line and y-axis$\int_0^3 x_{\text{parabola}} dy - \text{Area of } \Delta \text{ bounded by line and y-axis}$.
The triangle bounded by x=2y-4, x=0, y=2, y=3$x=2y-4, x=0, y=2, y=3$ is: base is x=2(3)-4 = 2$x=2(3)-4 = 2$ at y=3$y=3$, height is 1$1$ (from y=2$y=2$ to y=3$y=3$). Triangle area = frac12 times 2 times 1 = 1$\frac{1}{2} \times 2 \times 1 = 1$.
Hence, Enclosed Area = int_0^3 ((y-2)^2 + 1) dy - 1$\int_{0}^{3} ((y-2)^2 + 1) dy - 1$.
### Step 2: Evaluating the Integral
textArea = int_0^3 (y^2 - 4y + 5) dy - 1$\text{Area} = \int_{0}^{3} (y^2 - 4y + 5) dy - 1$= left[ fracy^33 - 2y^2 + 5y right]_0^3 - 1$= \left[ \frac{y^3}{3} - 2y^2 + 5y \right]_0^3 - 1$= left( frac273 - 2(9) + 5(3) right) - 0 - 1$= \left( \frac{27}{3} - 2(9) + 5(3) \right) - 0 - 1$= (9 - 18 + 15) - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5$= (9 - 18 + 15) - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5$
### Pattern Recognition
Instead of evaluating horizontal strips with a broken left-bound, evaluate the total area mapped to the y-axis int_0^3 x dy$\int_0^3 x dy$ and simply subtract the basic geometric triangle removed by the straight line.
